The Two Gentlemen of Verona is a comedy from Shakespeare's early career. It has the smallest cast of any of Shakespeare's plays, and is the first of his plays in which a heroine dresses as a boy. It deals with the themes of friendship and infidelity between the two gentlemen and best friends, Valentine and Proteus, on their travels to Milan.  Once there, Proteus falls madly in love with Silvia, who is actually deeply committed to Valentine.  Julia, Proteus’s first love, follows the two men to Milan in order to keep an eye on her betrothed.  The play quickly spirals out of control as Silvia is repeatedly accosted by Proteus, who attempts to tell Valentine of his friend’s treachery, all while Julia watches her love’s unfaithful acts.
